Dear Esplanade Members,
A very warm welcome to all new homeowners of Esplanade on Palmer Ranch and Legacy Estates! If you haven't had a chance to do so yet, please stop by the front desk of the Amenity Center to collect your member packet, key cards, and fobs. Please fill out your member packet and return it to the front desk of the resort Amenity Center to register your household as Members of the Resort Amenity. We look forward to meeting you soon!
We are all so grateful to have the return of Signature Events this year! Catch the sneak peek of Bubbles and Bowties in this issue. September has plenty of fun in store. There is a focus on the courts with Dink & Drink and the introduction of our Intermediate Pickleball Clinic, both hosted by Scott Treibly. Dance night is returning by popular demand and is a fun way to socialize with neighbors and to get moving! If you are drawn to more peaceful and relaxing events then join Caron Hunter for the Mindful Mediation Introduction and learn new tools to bring calm and happiness to your days.
As a reminder, if you have a house or day guest who will be using the amenities, please be sure to register them at the front desk. Once registered, your guest will be issued a guest pass that they should keep with them while enjoying the resort amenities. This includes guests that are joining you to play on any of the sports courts. Please contact your Lifestyle Manager if you have any questions about the Lifestyle program or the amenities that we offer here at Esplanade. Please note, all Members can begin registering for events as soon as the monthly newsletter and calendar are sent out. As always, I am here to assist you with any of your lifestyle needs and to help solve any issues that may arise.
